i’m considering a new project that would require a big multi-touch surface, among other inputs / outputs. So i’m doing a first pass on a research for big multitouch surfaces. Right now they all seem to work under Windows OS only;
have you guys tried to use touchDesigner on any of this technologies? i assume that the multitouch objects for TD are fully compatible with the Windows multitouch API right?
(meanwhile i’ve found this topic about multitouch on TD (derivative.ca/Forum/viewtopi … =36&t=5560) which is on the hardware / input devices section of the forum, where my topic should be also hehe)
Ive done projects with IR camera based methods before. We did one FTIR and one LLP setup and both worked well. Using CCV to just send all the touch events into TouchDesigner than parsed everything out in Python. Have another install on the horizon and we’re looking at using PQ Labs G4S bezel, looks pretty nifty and no cameras required!
Ive only heard good things about the frames from colleagues that have used them, so I’m looking forward to it, and ours is going to be large, about 20’ x 3’.
Table, nice thing is that they can make a g4s in basically whatever size you want. So we’re getting a single frame that will wrap around the whole thing, so need to try to blend touch zones across multiple sensors or anything.
